I can’t stop eating in my sleep

Laura Bataceli is a slim size ten, but believes she would be several dress sizes larger and many stones heavier if it were not for her partner, Daniel, putting a lock on the kitchen door. She asked him to fit the lock because she suffers from night eating syndrome — an irresistible urge to eat in the middle of the night. Sometimes, she wakes up craving food; at others, she eats while she’s still asleep.
